To The Editor: Here we go again! How many times does Ingles Markets Inc. need to hear that the Rugby community does not want, nor does it need, the facility in its back yard? A proposed site on N.C. 191 and N. Rugby Road is up for rezoning once again.

This is a beautiful corridor into and out of Hendersonville. It is an established scenic neighborhood with two schools, the Historic Johnson Farm facility, a historic cemetery and horse farms which drew many to this part of town. Right now there is an Ingles being constructed on N.C. 280 less than three miles up the road.

Ingles is adamant on breaking into this corridor and destroying the beauty under the guise that it is needed.

Mr. Ingle, we do not need nor do we want your "big box" commercialism in this beautiful corridor.
